Story of this doll:
Vera is a 14-jointed german doll by Heidi Ott. I was happy as a clam
when I finally managed to mail-order two of these dolls from the Great
Britain with some help of a friend and his Visa-card (and I seriously
can't remember the name of that store anymore, sorry folks).
Doll's face is original, but the wig is made of yarn since the doll was
originally bald. I designed and made the clothes and jewelry myself.
Later I mail-ordered her some bloomer-type of women's garments, but they
really don't show under her skirt. Vera is the 4th character that
arrived in my dollhouse, so I broke the order here a little bit, whoops.Veran Tarina:
Vera on maanläheinen luonnonlapsi ja itu-ihminen. Hän on nopeasti
vakiinnuttanut asemansa kodin hengettärenä, joka pitää huoneet puhtaana
ja laittaa perheelle maittavia aterioita. Hän on kasvissyöjä, mikä vähän
harmittaa hänen veljenpoikaansa Perttiä, joka mieluummin järsisi
porkkanoiden sijaan rakaa lampaanreittä. Vera on kuitenkin pidetty
hahmo, joten kiistoja syntyy harvoin. Vera osaa patistaa myös muut
perheenjäsenet siivoustalkoisiin, ja järjestää perheelle yhteisiä
ajanvietteitä. Tässä leikellään lumihiutaleita ikkunoihin:

Vera's Story:
Vera is sort of an earth-bound person, a nature's child, and she's
quickly established her position as the household-maiden who keeps all
the house clean and cooks up tasty meals for the family. She's a
vegetarian, which annoys her nephew Pertti a little, cause he would much
rather chew on a fresh roast of lamb than a carrot-stew. Still, Vera is
very liked among the family-members, so there's hardly any disputes.
Vera also has the talent to make others do some chores with her, and
often gets the family together to spend some quality time. Here everyone
is clipping snowflakes on windows during the winter:
Vera on myös perheen käsityöläinen. Hän neuloo ja ompelee vaatteita
perheenjäsenille, ja piirtää maisemakuvia luonnoslehtiöönsä. Vera-tädin
kintereillä talossa usein hiippailee Mörkö, joka tarjoaa auttavan
kätensä arkisten askareiden keskellä.

Vera is also the seweress of the family. She knits and sewes clothes for
the family-members, and does occasional drawings on her sketchpad.
Along with auntie-Vera around the house is often seen a Bogeyman, who's
very helpfull in the everyday chores.
